Spear stabs win at DeAnzaMX A pair of rid.... dice over the DeAnz8 course. By Kit Palmer majority of entrants ran the event with just the stock headlights on their enduro bikes, and for the most part the small beams were up to the task, especially if two or three riders rode together. Billed as "a real easy fun event," the course layout nonetheless made the riders work for their trophies and finisher pins. Made up of sandwashes and rocky, whoopy trails around Anderson Dry Lake, the course would have been fairly easy if run in the daytime, but at night and with lots of dust, it was all the challenge most of the riders needed. "Darkness, dust and whoop-de-doos, followed quickly by more darkness, dust and whoop· de-doos," was one rider's wry com· ment about the CQ!!!se. SUNNYMEAD, CA, JULY 31 When Hang Ten/Krausesponsored Tony Spear brings his Suzuki out to DeAnza Cycle Park, everyone knows he's the one to beat in the 250cc Intermediate class. Today was no exception.

By the end of lap orr lap one, l25cc rider also CantIq snuck past both Dimmill and Spear while Dimmitt also slipped by Spear. However, a lap later, Cantley dropped back to third letting Dim· mill and Spear duel over the lead. For the rest of the field Spear thm found a way around Dimmitt, taking over the top spot. From that point on, Spear's fast pace carried him acrOlS the cbeckered line first. 'I Dimmill finished a close secooo (ollowed by Cantley and Alex Lopez (Yam l25cc). Lowe took the win ~ the Opens (o1JowuI by Brent Robinson (Hus) and Ban Hill (Mai).
